Cook safely

Keep children and pets away from the hob and the oven, and keep oven gloves and a lid within reach.

  • Oven and hot trays. Use dry oven gloves for trays and dishes: a hot tray looks just like a cold one. Open the oven door away from your face and let the first rush of heat out.
  • Sharp knives. Cut on a board that doesn't slip (a damp cloth under it helps), and curl the fingers of the hand that holds the food.

Method

  1. Cream butter and sugar. Add egg yolks and beat until light. Add sifted dry ingredients alternately with wine and mix well. Chill. Roll out thin on floured board and cut with 2" cookie cutter.
  2. Place on ungreased cookie sheets, brush with slightly beaten egg white and sprinkle with nuts.
  3. Bake at 325 degrees for 8-10 minutes.
